Charlottesville Airport
This is a nice airport for the Jet Set. Landmark Aviation has friendly service people..... However, the security issues make it not a really good place for making friends, learning to fly, and the way things used to be in aviation. Other airports around are somewhat better for these purposes such as Orange, Gordonsville, Eagles Nest (Waynesboro)
